Answer:

A procedure is the specified way to carry out activities making up a process, while an instruction describes the sequence of steps to conduct the tasks making up an activity.
Regarding the documented information, the standard differences between documented information to be maintained, commonly known as procedures, and documented information to be retained, known as records.
I relation to the structure of the documentation, although it is not mandatory you can follow this documentation hierarcy represented in a pyramid: 1) manual, 2) policy, 3) procedures, 4)work instructions, 5) records.
